Description

This is the first comprehensive history of the New Zealand Maori rugby team, including analysis of the politics behind the side and insights into the New Zealand-South Africa relationship. 

The book is divided into decades, with a focus on provinces that were strong at the time. Among the notable Maori players are George Nepia, Sid Going, Bill Bush, Pat Walsh, Waka Nathan, Tane Norton, Wayne ("Buck") Shelford and Paul Quinn. 

With unique photographs, memorabilia, cartoons, statistics and player interviews, this book is a must-have for all rugby fans.

Author Biography
